With his wife M'yri'ah and daughter K'hym, J’onn had everything a man/Martian could want. Prior to his arrival on Earth, J'onn served as a Manhunter - the Martian equivalent of a detective - on his home world. With hairless green skin, a prominent forehead, and a number of strange powers including telepathy, the Manhunter was a far more alien visitor than the Man of Steel and was no infant when he arrived. J'onn was a native of the planet Mars and, unlike Superman, was much less human in his appearance. In November 1955, in the pages of "Detective Comics" #225, J'onn J'onzz, the Martian Manhunter, made his debut. The end of that era and the beginning of the Silver Age could be said, arguably, to have begun the same way. The Golden Age of superhero comics began, arguably, with the arrival of an alien visitor who lived among us as Superman. In DC Comics' “Final Crisis” #1 (May 2008), J’onn J’onzz, the Martian Manhunter died at the hands of Libra and the Secret Society of Super-Villains.
